Citizens Arrest

Pandora was led into the station by Detective Verma. Her wrists were cuffed and she was possibly being detained. Beside her was a man still wrapped up in the silken cocoon she had made for him. That was why she was here now, in cuffs. She had been attacked by an anti demon supporter and rather than tear him apart for all to see she had simply restrained him. She had then proceeded to go to a public place and await the local authorities. Everyone had made her promise not to maim or kill and she had chosen to show restraint. So now because there was a body, she was getting punished. At the very least she felt the potential for some very kinky fun with these handcuffs.

The spider had even opted to come willingly, which might have been a surprise for many. If anything her presence seemed a surprise to the officer sitting at the front desk as he fell out of his chair when he looked up to see Felix leading her into the station. The cocooned man had been yelling the whole way here. he couldn't see, but she had left him a a gap to breath through, and he had been taking that luxury for granted as he spewed all sorts of profanities at the spider. Among them were threats to demons as a whole.

Pandora had not had a chance to check her body where she had been struck yet. But underneath the torn fabric of her shirt, grew a large purple bruise along her ribs. It ached but she could bare it. To make the whole process easier she had used this quick moment to shift into her human form, sacrificing her 8 legs for the two pedapalps that now formed into a pair of black human legs. She still stood at over six feet tall lending her a rather imposing visage none the less.

Pandora was led into the holding cells where she was left to wait for a moment. In that time no one seemed to keen on interacting her. Other officers would scurry by on occasion, some of them daring to stop for a brief moment to look her over. One even stopped to snap a photo of her behind bars. while it hadn't been very professional, it was not something that the spider really minded all too much. In truth it was a little flattering.

Before too long though Felix came back and took her to an interrogation room. In her human form navigating the smaller hallways was much easier, and she was even able to have a seat in the chair opposite of Felix. She kept her legs crossed, as her skirt covered very little, as was the norm for her. To anyone who didn't know her she might have been considered a prostitute.

Felix started by apologizing for how long things were taking. Pandora shrugged in response. There wasn't much that could be done about that. The justice system seemed to always take longer than simply dealing with things on her own, she knew that before she turned herself in. The issue that the guilty party had no intention of admitting his guilt would also slow things down. Again though it was something she had expected.

"My dear Mr. Felix. I know very well my reputation. As do you, and I can assume everyone in this building. We have no need to sugar coat it. I'm certain that if not for a substantial lack of evidence of any kind I would have been arrested much sooner for the things that people think I've done." She was being honest, but still retaining a degree of caution in her words. No point on incriminating herself directly for anything else. She maintained a calm and pleasant demeanor as she spoke. "I suspected he might not openly admit to breaking into my home and attacking me. And I admit perhaps under different circumstances I would have thrown him from the top of my Balcony... Or worse. But things are different now."

She hesitated now. Things were different. she needed to be honest here, not that that was a problem for her. But in doing so she would reveal something that she had wanted to keep quiet for a brief period. "Mr. Felix? A thought occurred to me. So long as I am innocent, or rather found to be innocent, any recordings made in this room do not need to be shared with the public? And No one will need to discuss this further? I have things that I would prefer to be kept hidden for a little while."

Pandora gave a small sigh. For the first time since she had turned herself in, she actually looked concerned. She wasn't worried about this. She could have easily gotten away with murdering this fellow, and hiding the evidence. Hell in all truth she was hungry enough to have eaten him. But he had been in her home, and that was a big deal now. "Felix..." She started. Her tone dropping to a whisper. All the confidence and playfulness was gone entirely. She was somber now, and for another moment she was deep in thought.

"I-I have witnesses..." This was it. She didn't want anyone to know about them yet. A few people had already learned and in her own mind that was a few people too many. She after all was still so confused by everything that was happening. "my children were in the house when I was attacked..." Her voice shook now. She knew Felix was a good cop. He was fair and honest, if not at least a lot more than anyone else.

"They are ok... They hid when he broke in... But... I sought you out rather than handling this on my own because... I'm...I'm scared." That actually hurt her to say. She was not the person that anyone could imagine being afraid of anything. But in this case her own safety was not what was at stake. Had she not come home when she did.. had this played out any differently that man could have found one of her girls. He had already been prepared to pick a fight with her, and that suggested he had been prepared to kill.

Pandora nodded as he stated exactly what she had been thinking. Had this man caught of them, it was almost too much to think about. She had always taught them though, that should anyone enter the apartment without her, that they were to hide. In most cases she suspected that they had hit the ceiling. The lucky thing about her place was that it offered 10 foot ceilings which gave the girls plenty of room to get up and out of sight.

Felix seemed surprisingly sympathetic now. Maybe this was what everyone was talking about when they suggested the law on the island was ok. Still though, she now had to take him home and introduce him to the girls. When he asked if they should head out now she hesitantly nodded. "Yes...Lets." She tried to act with renewed confidence now as she stood up.

She followed him in silence, contemplating whether or not her actions were right or not. In the end though she didn't have a choice. She had after all come this far so she needed to follow it through. Outside of the station Pandora took a second to shift back into her demonic form. Walking with only two legs was so tiresome and she had always been impressed with peoples ability to go indefinitely on two legs.

Her apartment was not at all too far from the station. Only a handful of blocks or so away. That in itself was a great thing as she had been eager to get home and make sure the kids were ok. The apartment building itself was well enough. It looked as though it had some older architecture, to it, but also like it had been recently renovated. There were 7 stories in total. Pandora was lucky that she could get the top floor.

"I hope you don't mind stairs, im on the top floor..."

As they approached the building Pandora instantly spotted several posters plastered to the front door advocating demon deportation among other things.The posters had not been there when she had left with her attacker. In a panic Pandora bolted for the door throwing it open and scaling the stairwell in no time at all. Once on the top floor she pushed open the door to her apartment to be greeted by Phaedra. The other girls were sleeping in hammocks by the windows.

She threw her arms around the young girl and waited for Felix to catch up.

Pandora released Phaedra and looked up to Felix as if wanting to say something herself. Instead she just looked down at her daughter and nodded, taking a step back to give her some room and let her talk.


Phaedra looked up at Felix and hesitated. Even with the nod from her mother she was still unsure of how to speak with this man. One could say that she was shy of all things. She took a deep breath, and slowly began to speak. "The man that hit mommy came in first. He banged on the door really loud and yelled so we were hiding." She was the equivalent of a seven or eight year old now, so she was luckily able to articulate well enough.

"He broke the door and came in, and when he didn't find us he went and sat in the bathroom with the lights off." She pointed to the generally unused room located next to the front door. When Mommy got home we were too scare to tell her that he was here. He hit her with that." She skittered over to the far wall and picked up the baseball bat from the floor, and brought it over to Felix. The Bat itself had a visible crack in it, that suggested that Pandora had been struck with no small force.

Phaedra sat for a moment in thought before speaking up again. "Is mommy in trouble?" She asked as she skittered over to her mom again.


Pandora Held her daughter for a moment before looking up at Felix. "The others are asleep... I'd prefer not to wake them if that's alright" As she spoke she pointed to the spider lings resting in their Hammocks by the windows.
